Flesh Beauty Glaze Tender Flesh Blush Review & Swatches
Glaze
Flesh Beauty Glaze Tender Flesh Blush ($26.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a medium copper with warm, rusty red undertones and a luminous sheen. It was intensely pigmented with a smooth, velvety texture that was dense without being stiff or too thick, which made it incredibly blendable on my skin. The color went on evenly, diffused easily along the edges, and the finish helped it sit well on skin with a soft sheen that didn’t emphasize my skin’s natural texture. This shade stayed on well for eight and a half hours on me before fading slightly.

Formula Overview
$26.00/0.14 oz. - $185.71 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be "richly pigmented" with a "cream-like powder" texture that is "infused with mica pearls for a glowy, soft focus effect," though there are two finishes--matte and frost. From the shades I trialled, they were pigmented and long-wearing (eight to nine hours) with some shades blending better than others. The texture is denser and firmer without powderiness, but I wouldn't describe the ones I tried as stiff.

Gorgeous shade of blush! I had actually forgotten that I have MAC Pleasure Model, though. Not forgotten to use it, but that this is its actual name! I usually just think of it as “that blush in the Whisper Of Gilt duo”. Silly me!
I think you have Make You Mine, too. I love that one, thanks to Christine…
Nice one.
$26 is a lot, especially for a Revlon product (with ugly packaging and an icky name). I know this rated an “A” but I just couldn’t bring myself to buy one of these. I’d rather spend an extra $4 and get a NARS blush.
Zero interest in this line personally. I know the party line behind the name, but frankly it seems like BS to me; particularly given the click-baity names they attached to everything. It just screams of trying to hard to be relevant.
Very pretty!
